Official patch (version 1.11.3) available

[Mack the Knife]

don't call me stupid but call me confused...i bought the CD version of the game, which patch do i need. how the heck do i know that 505 is german only?!

i live in the US, bought the game on CD, i DON'T use multiplayer. which version do i need? the one from aspyr? thanks!


EDIT - i went to some of the other sites and (unlike the main download site), they say (US), (German) etc by the download so i am loading the one from Aspyr (80.6megs)...i have no previous patch installed so i'm hoping i won't have the trouble some of these other folks are having....thanks for the effort on the patch now bring on the japanese in the next one!!!!

Have the Direct 2 Drive version, running the MP-only 1.11 patch, have tried every single patch file and none of them will even install.

Some help would be great - I'd like to play Singleplayer again.

Same here,i tried all versions of patch except 505 Games German version,they either say "not for this version",or an error like the other guys said.
Im am not pleased.

NOT compatible with previous saves for those wondering. And I have GG version and the GG patch installed and works fine.

Yes the problem is that 'BestWay' did the unofficial patch that did work on Direct2Drive versions of the game,but there is no 'BestWay',patch version yet,thats our problem.

What the ****? It makes my old saves imcompat? They never said that. Ugh, this is such ******* bullshit.

Not only does my game not work now, but my old saves are useless.

YOu guys freaking suck at support. Most games these days can make old saves compat.

Im just fed up now of almost all Pc games being released with loads of issues,its not on really,you wouldnt find that in most other bussinesses,cars being sold with non compatible parts,could you imagine lol.

[Mkilbride]

Yeah. I know these people aren't a big name or anything, but usually that means the support would be better than big name companies.

not really, probably not even 50%. it depends on what code is changed but from your language and immature way of addressing your issues, you probably haven't a clue as to what goes on in a game patch. anyway, you have go with the flow. if save games are preserved, great. if they aren't, well what can you do? you will learn someday that throwing a hissy fit gets you nowhere.

But no offense mate,with your oh so understanding attitude to the constant game releases of unfinished or issued filled games,is it any wonder it has become such an excepted thing now in the PC games industry,with you saying yeah its fine we dont mind waiting for patches to fix issues stopping us enjoying your games,lol.

P.S.Why are all the different patches so many different sizes,even the ones that are english only.
